A member asked:
Endoscopy found some gastritis and small hiatal hernia. did not mention gerd, gp said i have reflux, would report say acid or bile reflux if so?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessary: The gastritis esophagitis can come from the reflux of acid or bile. The pylorus should keep bile distal. The esophageal sphincter should keep acid out of esophagus in general. BUT these can fail. The PCP knows your symptoms and adds the endoscopy to the facts and will try to guide your treatment.

Three months ago I had an upper endoscopy positive for gastritis, reflux, and a hiatal hernia. Recently I've had sharp neck pain (from the clavicle to the jaw) during and after (an hour after) eating. Does this sound like GERD? Inflammation perhaps?
I was just diagnosed by endoscopy with hiatal hernia, GERD, and erosive gastritis. Would any of these cause pain in the left side waist/flank area?
4 months ago upper endoscopy positive for GERD, gastritis, and hiatal hernia. More recently I sometimes have right sided neck/shoulder/collarbone pain after (and infrequently during) eating. Unlikely to be anything insidious or malignant?
I had endoscopy two months ago (gastritis, gerd, h. Hernia). Problems got worse. Is it possible to develop esophagus cancer in that short time?
Could a hiatal hernia with GERD cause inflammation leading to gastritis? Any correlation between the two?
